Unidentified arsonists, the Baptist Church at Gidan Maso village in Rogo Local Government Area of Kano State has been set ablaze and the residence of the Pastor, Rev Habila Garba, burnt by irate youths.

During the incident which happened on April 1 at about 7:30 pm, one of the Pastor’s daughters died of suffocation and most parts of the house destroyed as a result of the fire.

The President of “Tarayyar Masihiyawan Nijeria” (Hausa, Fulani and Kanuri Christians), General Ishaku Ahmed Dikko (retd), told journalists on Tuesday in Abuja that the intention was to kill one youth, Yahaya Joshua, who converted to Islam but later on reverted back to Christianity.

The Baptist Church at GIDAN MASO village of Rogo LGA in Kano State was set on fire by youths of the Village on 01 April, 2015 at about 7:30 pm. The Church and all the properties were burnt down in the presence of the Christian Community despite all pleadings for them to stop the destruction. The arsonists gathered cornstalks and put inside the Church in order to cause greater damage. This made the action to seem deliberate and for ulterior motives.

The Christians present exhibited great Christian qualities by not taking the law into their hands by trying to stop them by force. Rather than the arsonist to see reason, they were infuriated which led to setting the house of the Pastor, Rev Habila Garba, ablaze as well. As a result of the fire, one of the Pastor’s daughters died of suffocation and most of the house destroyed.

They also attacked and wounded Bawa Adamu and Aminu Dauda, who received machet cuts leading to broken arms. Others received similar wounds but of lesser degrees.

So sad

.

Islam is the most reprehensible out of all other political or religious ideologies on earth.


.....some people insist that all religions have and equal amount of good and bad,I shall just never understand. Almost all armed conflict worldwide is Islamic!


Mohammad hacked his religion upon the middle-east by personally leading twenty-six battles of war.All of which are now holy events.Ever since,Islam has been at war !

Religion isn't a do-or die affair. Live and lets live.I dont think that's asking too much.

I don't think I've ever heard that a mosque was burnt down......#Smh
Innocent pastor's daughter died just like that? A promising live wasted

What now happen to Freedom of Religion. These guys are barbaric.

Religion should be by choice not force

Can anything good come out from the north??....
Nigeria should trace the root of the north cos i believe this people can't be Nigeria...
Igbo i know, yoruba i know

.......and Islam is a religion of peace




With the news of bombing and killing of innocent citizens every day in the North in the name of fighting for Islam, i guess the north is really enjoying peace as defined by Islam.


and to crown it all.....Borno state the headquarters of boko haram has its state slogan as " Home of peace"



with these findings, I need to really check if I understand what "peace" really means
